| I am using the latest version of MUSHclient and have been connecting successfully for months up until now. I have not updated or changed my operating system. When I try to connect all that happens is this:
Welcome to MUSHclient version 5.06!

As you can see it is not even trying to connect! I have tried several muds and it is the same for all of them. Connecting with a mud portal is no problem, so the internet is fine.
I am using a MacBook Air with a wine-preloader (Wine Stable) to run MUSHclient. | | Top |

| UPDATE: solved!
I had an issue recently with a mud requesting I disable auto connect. After reenabling it the problem was solved.
Having said that, can someone explain the exact function of autoconnect? | | Top |

| When you open the world file, it joins the MUD.
With that off, you have to select Connection (menu) -> Connect.
Or, just press <Enter> and it will notice that you are not connected and try to connect you.
"Nothing happens" when you open the world file is what I would expect with Auto Connect turned off. |
